References:

Mostly from Richard Sears' Chinese Etymology site (authorisation),
which in turn draws data from various collections of ancient forms of Chinese characters, including:

  • Shuowen Jiezi (small seal),
  • Jinwen Bian (bronze inscriptions),
  • Liushutong (Liushutong characters) and
  • Yinxu Jiaguwen Bian (oracle bone script).

Phono-semantic compound (形聲形声, OC *ŋral): semantic + phonetic (OC *ŋrals).

Etymology[edit]

Sino-Tibetan in origin. Cognate with the following (Schuessler (2007), STEDT):

  • (OC *ŋral, “proper; suitable”)
  • (OC *ŋrals, “righteous”)
  • (OC *ŋrals, “to discuss; to comment; to criticize”)
  • (OC *hŋral, “sacrifice (v., n.)”)

Schuessler (2007) considers them to be cognate with Mizo ŋaiᴴ / ŋaiʔᴸ (to think; consider; be necessary; have need to; be customary), Khumi Chin ŋài (to wish; to need), Lai ŋaaj / ŋaʔj (to yearn; to long for), Tedim Chin ŋaːi² (to love).

On the other hand, STEDT provisionally sets up Proto-Kuki-Chin *ŋaay (listen; hark), which is compared to the 5 Sinitic words.
